2 things here…

  1. Make sure your TaHoma Switch is updated along with your motors

  2. Do not connect the hub to HomeKit via the Apple Home app. If you did, remove the switch from HomeKit then you will be able to add them to Home Assistant via HomeKit Device.

Forgot to add. . . You cannot have RTS motors. RTS motors will not be HomeKit compatible. The TaHoma Switch will work with HomeKit but it depends on what motors you have connected to the Switch.

I have a TaHoma Switch (the latest model) which I can control using the TaHoma App (Android phone). I successfully integrated this into HA using the Overkiz integration, which supports Somfy TaHoma Switch hub, for the Europe model. Both work, and I have also integrated the TaHoma with Google Home so I have four ways to control the RTS blinds, including Somfy remotes.
All my Somfy IO devices work in HA using this integration too.

Hi
Is Tahoma Switch is in local mode in HA (vs Cloud mode) ?
I’d like to control Atlantic heater in local mode vs Cloud mode.
My Cozytouch gateway is cloud mode only…

I don’t have one yet, but it seems like if you use overkiz that it would be running locally Overkiz - Home Assistant
